Explanation:
Manikarnika was a Brahmin girl born to Moropant Tambe and Bhagirathi Tambe on 19th November 1828 in Kashi (the now Varanasi). She was also called Manu Bai when they moved to the Bithoor district in Uttar Pradesh because her father started working as an adviser in the Peshwa Baji Rao’s court, after the death of her mother. Manu Bai spent her childhood training in martial arts, horse riding, fencing, shooting, and playing with Nana Sahib, Tantia Tope, Rao Sahib, and other boys in the Peshwa’s court. Manu Bai was very fond of horse riding, and she had two mares, namely Pavan and Sarangi, and a horse named Badal.
The fourteen-year-old Manikarnika was married to Maharaja Gangadhar Rao Newalkar in 1842, who was the king of Jhansi. After marriage, she was named Lakshmi Bai (also spelled as Laxmi, who is the Hindu Goddess of wealth). Bai is the honorable title given to the Queen or the ‘Maharani’ of the kingdom. In 1851, Lakshmi Bai gave birth to Gangadhar Rao’s son and named him Damodar Rao, but unfortunately, after four months, the child died due to chronic illness. Soon after, Maharaja adopted his cousin’s son Anand Rao, yet he could not recover from the depression of his son’s death and ultimately die in 1853.
The British Government saw the Maharaja’s death and a loss of direct bloodline heir as an opportunity to occupy Jhansi. The British East India Company introduced the Doctrine of Lapse, and Governor-General in India implemented this policy (from 1848 to 1856). The doctrine stated that ‘if the ruler of a princely state under the direct or indirect control of the East India Company died without a legal male heir then the state would be annexed by the Company.’ Rani Lakhsmi Bai was irked by the unfairness of the British Rule, and she even pleaded at the London court, but of course, was turned down, and the British only agreed to grant her an annual pension that her adopted son won’t be given to after her death.
Rani Lakshmi Bai was not willing to give up her fort and kingdom, and in 1857 she bravely fought against the British Army (lead by General Hugh Rose) with her son tied to her back and riding on her horse Badal. Her army consisted of 14000 rebellions and some famous figurines like Tantia Tope, Nana Rao Peshwa, Dost Khan, Gulam Gaus Khan, Deewan Raghunath Singh, Khuda Baksh, Deewan Jawahar, and many more. Some famous woman warriors that joined Rani Lakshmi Bai’s forces were Jhalkari Bai, Sundar-Mundar, and others.
After gallantly fighting with the British Troops, Lakshmi Bai is allegedly said to have died in action or due to her severe injuries in 1858. Later her guards had secretly cremated her for she didn’t want her body to be discovered by British troops
